Hi, Get hold of City Navigator or Metroguide Europe or US depending where you are, It gives you the ability to search for a house address and will guide you to the door (By road if the option is selected or line of sight if off road selected).

+Miragee Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Unless you ordered the discontinued Vista C, or a Vista Cx, or the newer Vista HCx, your new GPS unit will not auto-route. You can put street maps, like the older "Roads and Recreation" maps on it, and you can also put Topo maps on it, and those make it more useful than just having the basemap. Quote Link to comment
jonslater Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 I used my vista hcx on saturday to provide me with turn by turn directions in the car using city navigator NT maps (Europe) and then i switched to the Topo maps of Great Britain for the hike. Quote Link to comment
